I came across this unit at a recent video presentation and was very intrigued. This is my single biggest challenge in using my really nice instrument (AP900/127mm refractor). They list a few AP mounts

Do u have a huge backlash ?

Yanzhe is the mount an older, used one?? Fernando

Luke your best options are: 1) PWT Monolith 2) ATS pier 3) Rob Miller Heavy Duty tripod 4) Parallax Instruments pier The ATS is still in production. I think Parallax is still in business. The PWT &
